Activities for All Seasons
Spring at last! I want to make the most of it – but how? Now there’s snow again. What can I do on Sunday without sledging? There are activities for all seasons that you can only do now. Sometimes the window of opportunity is pretty short – depending on the weather. It’s worth creating a bucket list on your smartphone, because let me tell you: most season-specific activities guarantee great moments (which often end up in your photo album): Having a leaf fight with the kids in the swirling, colorful tangle of leaves, harvesting bright green, freshly sprouting wild garlic between wood anemones or the first mulled wine in the snow – there are very special moments for every season.
